Aesthetics of becoming playful and self-analysis between reflections and Human research

In the artistic philosophy of Manuella Muerner Marioni Life and the Being plays an absolutely important role, both conceptually and visually. We could say that both are part of a single fascinating idea that existence blends utopia and reality in a game of shapes, space, color.

The artist’s aim is to break the order of use of conventional society and the world, showing him through a reflection ephemeral, changing, mutation always new.

In mirror or glass tiles is reflected or absorbed the real space, turning into light and color, allowing the viewer to become part of the creative process of the artist through his image, becoming an integral part.

The sculptures of Manuella Muerner Marioni break the visual schemes of classicism, when in the shape and space come together in a close dialogue in search of a new identity.

This may be, from time to time, the viewer reflex, daylight or darkness of the night, the chromaticism of nature or urban environment …

In short, the artist leaves to the world, to the reality, to us to interact, to form a new image of art.

The bright colors of acrylic emphasize, in the paintings steps and symbolic elements, to define almost mystical and spiritual worlds left to the discovery of the users, while running the surface with the eye may lose and find himself in labyrinths of signs and flashes of color and tonal.

They are as far alphabets, hieroglyphics to interpret and read with the look, but also with the spirit, creating an iconography antique flavor, but with contemporary aesthetics.

In the pictorial art of Manuella Muerner Marioni, the field is rich of gestures and materials, where we can find space elements and small found objects, such as transistors and cards of computers, which create characters and human portraits from the essence technological to the existence of today, we have become accustomed.

The metamorphosis of Human is ongoing in this third millennium, the author captures the expressive and conceptual synthesis, putting the art to the service of society, as reflected in a visual document to leave to posterity.

The mosaic technique, the ancient stained glass windows, a craft that is rooted in tradition and history resurfaces with personal originality in the works of the artist, to testify to a careful and rigorous academic training that is completed, every day, with experimental and multidisciplinary creative processes.

Painting, sculpture, installations interact with the senses of observers in a process of self-analysis playful and intimate formal and mental, an art reflected and reflective, a life in the mirror of aesthetics and beauty of becoming immortal.
